In the Arms of Eternity
In loving arms of eternity …

Silken touch and velvet words
whispered soft in eloquent verse,
as eyes so deep like bottomless pools,
of yearning souls in the grip of love, do drool
as melding of flesh and mind ensues.
As sensual bliss ignites passion’s kiss,
and warm flesh writhes in arched surprise
as bodies fall to rhythm,
and minds aloft on clouds so high,
as world fades away to a mist of lies.
Here in a world of two,
where nothing can part what’s now infused,
as love enacts its ritual deeds,
and hearts are filled with serenity ease,
to deliver souls to paradise.
Love is all and captivates a soul complete,
to yearn for infinity’s freedom,
and draw from what a soul in essence stands,
to pledge a life that heart’s command,
in the loving arms of eternity.

You romantic, you! Very beautiful expression of love and two souls becoming one. My gosh, Tony, so romantic.
I’ll die a romantic, although tainted and a touch cynical, love always rings true for a romantic. And so I am, and remain, a romantic. Cheers!
You know, this was beyond admiration. How can I not like it? Romance is my favourite genre in prose and poetry. I had written a similar poem, a year ago, perhaps. It’s called “Celestial Season of Love”
The wee hours of morning moist with spring
Muffled up with vibrant autumn trees
Usher a Mellifluous hymn of leaves
Tumbling down the perennial trees
Clouds vivifying whimsy of colours
Resuscitate the emporium of Love
As we coyly stand under a single umbrella
Soaked in water and shivers of chill
Ah! The vehemence of our breaths
Chiming in cadence tote dryness
Leaving the Soul replenished with thirst
And ‘tis cajoling mind yearning to cuddle
Standing amidst the cobbled street
Exalting the depths of Romantic milieu
The parched Souls delve into each other’s lips
Invigorating Flames in gelid bodies for sips
The nonpareil Fragrance of our breaths
Seasoned with silenced reticence
Gesticulates warmth rushing through veins
Reciprocating seductive blaze
Let the time clothe into a glacial suit
For the Souls have pined fervently
To see, to touch, to feel the season
And its Ceaseless ethereal cycle
The piercing eyes feel no carnal shame
For every season has its reason
And every reason has its season
Ah! ‘Tis Love laden with placid thoughts
Let the soul comprehend this feeling
And perpetuate the rituals
Of this celestial season of Love
For it ain’t a delinquency, nay a Dove.

Hope you like it, Tony. Enjoyed your poetry very much! Keep on writing. Take care.
You are a fine poet Surabhi, your word use and the flow of sound and meaning create some vivid imagery and the lilting sounds of romantic intent. I am a romantic at heart, but I really don’t write much in this genre anymore. I love descriptive poetry, the beauty of nature and philosophy in many forms. I look forward to reading your work and enjoying the nuances of your creative mind. Take care.
